Dig This!: Black Lips - Hippie, Hippie, Hoorah

Here’s a fun and funny little garage-punk tune from a newer band who some of us just saw play at the Siren Festival. I thought their show was great and I had never even heard them before that. They definitely set themselves apart from your typical indie-rock acts today. Listen up…

Blog Jammin’: Inaugural Blog Jam at New NewmRadio
